They just keep coming up with dead ends. Very unfortunate for the families. Mind you, they have a lot of ocean floor to cover (relatively speaking).

Looks like that oil slick wasn't connected to the flight.

Oh ok. I didn't know that.

Well, we certainly don't have the resources like the U.S., Australia, Britain. We could only offer token help in any event. But I know that a Pilot from Ontario did help in the search at one time.

We probably weren't asked by the Malaysian government to help in the search.

Why do we need to start redefining Canada?

I don't believe they are. Not much we can offer

Argus said that large groups of muslims are terrorists. He clearly said that.

CNN has moved on to Horseshoe Bay, British Columbia inside a submersible machine to illustrate what the searchers are going through. First Toronto, now BC.

And now they are considering gas lines to accommodate the growing demand from Japan since they are no longer building nuclear plants.

Actually you did say that. A very racially charged bigoted comment.

The NRA has not lost anytime in attacking the plan: "Chris Cox, who heads the NRA's lobbying division the Institute for Legislation Action, appeared on the April 16 edition of Fox News' The Kelly File to attack the new initiative. Host Megyn Kelly set up the segment by telling viewers Everytown is part of "a twin threat to Second Amendment supporters developing this week." The NRA will treat 'everytown' as a threat to all americans.

Bloomberg is planning to pledge at least $50 million to establish a GRASS-ROOTS operation dedicated to ensuring anti-gun voters reach the polls. Isn't this something the NRA has done in the past to ensure gun owners vote against candidates who are for gun control? The NRA has never done battle with a better funded adversary. Let's see how he does. And btw, this plan is to pass stronger background check rules, it is not to take any guns away from any law abiding citizen.

There was the largest measles outbreak ever recorded in British Columbia in the Fraser Valley at 320 confirmed cases this year. They originated at a religious school who's affiliation with a church does not believe in vaccinations. It has even spread to Vancouver and other parts of the lower mainland. This has resulted in putting children's lives at risk and in fact, a school district in the lower mainland would not let children return to school unless they had shown proof of immunization.

Well, it's about time a a grasswork's network has been formalized. It's called the 'Everytown for Gun Safety'. Here are some highlights: Before 2014 midterms, they have pledged to aim to get at least 1 million voters to pledge to vote for candidates based on where they stand on gun safety. educate the public that the NRA's political strength is wildly blown out of proportion and that it's leadership has grown increasing extreme and out of touch with its own members. take the fight for gun violence prevention policies to every community in America.

If anyone was watching the CNN coverage of this story and followed Martin Savidge and Mitchell in the Flight Simulator at the Mississauga airport, this is interesting. Mitchell was fired after CNN left because Mitchell disgraced Canadians because of his attire and showing up late for work. From what I saw, his attire looked fine to me. That's the Canadian way, shorts and sandals! uFly fires flight instructor

I suppose there is no thread created because we don't have multiple killings by knives everyday of the year.

I did actually introduce (highlight) a recent stabbing attack in Canada on the first page of this thread.

What different types of Indian cards are you referring? There is a new Indian Status card that has extra security features such as a hologram and a scannable ID card number available to approximately 800,000 status Indians in Canada. This will help to eliminate identity theft, fraud etc. What scams are you referring to and why should they be banned?

It's a feel good song for sure. Makes you want to get out on the dance floor and bust some moves!

Gosh, I guess we really do think with our vaginas!

I guess than as Canadians we should be concerned. There are approximately a million terrorists living amongst us. We better take cover! Muslims fastest growing religious population in Canada.

When I said the geographers were watching this closely, I meant that they were interested in the actually mapping of the ocean floor, especially in the Indian Ocean.

It's comments like these that instil prejudice and fear in folks and does nothing to create harmony between different religions and cultures. Being a muslim does not designate someone as being a terrorist. Consider this case in NYC. A bus driver booted an 11 year old boy off his bus after calling him a terrorist because he was reciting a prayer. He was looking for his bus pass and recited the prayer to help him find it.
